Thanks Kfun! Yes I read the conversation between you and spam which gave me the idea.

I'm not sure whether I can buy a gift card on MTUrk, which is in the US, and use it on Amazon Canada - I guess probably not. I know that the gift cards from MTurk can't be used on European Amazon sites, I once asked them.

You can only buy an Amazon.com GC on Amazon.com, but if you can do it, that's fine. I'll figure out someone to sell it to!

Okay that's great! So, please tell me how this works, I have never bought a gift card on MTurk. Do they email me a code and I forward it to you, or what shall I do? They have no info on this in the FAQ's, at least I haven't found any. Sorry to ask so many questions.

When I did it this is how it worked. You select the amount you want or put your own amount in. They will ask for the email recipient. That is the email spamgirl mentioned in mine and her conversation. You click send or purchase or whatever the button is and that is it. The recipient gets an email and the gift card that way. Your part is done. You get an email in regards to the purchase you made and maybe an email that the person has received it...I don't remember that part for sure. It was super easy to do.

Just tested, you can't buy a GC with an Amazon balance I had forgotten about that...

I don't understand. I have the option to transfer my money to a GF on my dashboard. That GF would be for Amazon.com. Would that not work for you?

Just in case for people like me who do not use Paypal, You can still purchase through Paypal as a guest and just use your debit or CC. I was going to do the Amazon GC but I thought I would check it out and it will let me use Paypal even though I dont have an account ( I personally am not fond of Paypal LOL )
